17:45 Chester Handicap (Class 4) 8f Race Class Flow

The chart reads from right to left to today's class 4 race.

LEGAL REFORM is in the form of his life at present and this track shouldn't inconvenience him as he looks to bring up the four-timer. A 4lb rise for his most recent success may underestimate him and he is preferred to the likes of Leicester runner-up Roach Power, and Devilwala, whose last win came over C&D last September. Stablemates Pearly Star and Princess Niyla both scored over C&D on their most recent starts and they are hard to separate in this contest.

The thriving LEGAL REFORM beat a couple of subsequent winners when completing the hat-trick at Lingfield so remains of interest up 4 lb. Star Player stepped up on his return when second at Pontefract and is another to consider, while Pearly Star did well to overcome a slow start when winning off 4 lb lower over this C&D 2 weeks ago.

Several have possibilities but the vote goes to LEGAL REFORM who has won three in a row and hit a personal best at Lingfield last time.

18:20 Chester Stakes (Class 4) 6f Race Class Flow

The chart reads from right to left to today's class 4 race.

This can go the way of GOLDEN TRICK, who shaped with promise on his debut at Ayr when staying on well for third late in the day. The booking of Hayley Turner is another plus and he may have too much for Salisbury winner Equity Law, who is bound to find life tougher under a 6lb penalty. Innvincible Friend and Conde are capable of being in the shake-up as well.

EQUITY LAW has made a promising start and has been found an excellent opportunity to follow up his Salisbury win. Golden Trick should progress from his debut third at Ayr and is next best ahead of Innvincible Friend.

This can go to INNVINCIBLE FRIEND who has form on a soft surface and is proven around here, including winning a C&D novice last month.

18:55 Chester Handicap (Class 4) 7f Race Class Flow

The chart reads from right to left to today's class 4 race.

The value may lie with GRAY'S INN, who was an eye-catcher on her first run for the Jack Channon stable when not beaten far in third at Haydock last month. A winner of a seller at Musselburgh prior to that, she should be open to further improvement over this distance. Lady Wulfrun has improved with each of her three qualifying runs and could be feasibly treated off an opening mark of 71, while Persian Phoenix got off the mark in fine style at Wolverhampton and is drawn to attack once more from stall two.

PERSIAN PHOENIX looked to relish the step up to 7f when scoring with something to spare in novice company at Wolverhampton last time and can follow up on nursery debut under Franny Norton. Royal runner Lady Wulfrun appeals as one who will benefit from 7f and is second choice ahead of Gray's Inn who is steadily going the right way.

This looks tricky but last month's emphatic Wolverhampton winner PERSIAN PHOENIX gets the vote ahead of Lady Wulfrun.

The chart reads from right to left to today's class 3 race.

Cormier will need a market check on his return from a lengthly absence as his best form would put him right in the picture. Box To Box will be popular after his win over C&D four weeks ago, battling on well and has only been nudged up 3lb for that victory. It may be worth taking a chance on DEMILION, though, as he could get a soft time of things on the front end, with his three-year-old allowances potentially giving him an edge, and Franny Norton rides this track so well.

In an open race the vote goes to Andrew Balding's SOVEREIGN SPIRIT racing outside of his own age group for the first time. Box To Box's excellent course record makes him a must for the shortlist, while Sonnerie Power is also respected after 3 solid efforts this term.

Despite a question over his stamina it may be worth chancing BARYSHNIKOV, who looks as though he should get the strong pace he needs.

20:05 Chester Handicap (Class 4) 6f Race Class Flow

The chart reads from right to left to today's class 4 race.

BEZZAS LAD performed with huge credit from a wide draw here last time and, having bagged stall three this time around, he looks sure to run a big race dropping back half a furlong in trip. Origintrail shaped well on her return to action at York last time and the previous course winner is a player back in trip. Roman Dragon won well here last time and, with his rider's claim offsetting most of his rise in the weights, is likely to get involved in what looks a tight contest.

ROMAN DRAGON picked up his fourth course success here recently and he's been rated higher in the past, so he gets the marginal vote ahead of fellow last-time-out winner Count D'Orsay. Lihou is bang in form and likely to make his mark once again.

Roman Dragon is a key player but COUNT D'ORSAY (nap) is preferred as he bids to follow up a recent Hamilton success.

20:40 Chester Handicap (Class 5) 7f Race Class Flow

The chart reads from right to left to today's class 5 race.

Code Purple has been in excellent form and just bumped into a well-handicapped rival who got the run of the race at Musselburgh last time, so he looks sure to be in the thick of things once again. Purple Martini has also been running well, winning two of his last four, and boasts sound claims. Marginal preference, though, is for BAY OF HOPE, who, despite the wide draw, may find things setting up a little better for him than at Ayr on Monday and he can get back to winning ways.

CODE PURPLE landed a double in the spring and would have gone close to completing the hat-trick with a clear run at Musselburgh a couple of months ago. Back from a break, he makes most appeal from stall 2, with Peachey Carnehan likely to pose a threat on the back of a solid showing at Wolverhampton. Ramiro is another one to consider.

A chance is taken on JILL ROSE, who is ideally suited by a sharp left-handed track with some give in the ground.
